We have spent lots of the summer just cruising with me trying to get my head in the right space. It has been a battle and I have focussed as much as possible on the children. They are all back at school now and heading into week 5. They have holidays in 4 weeks time!
Here I am at my 46th birthday and even though there was no money Keith did try (he did fail big time too!) We also celebrated our 26th Wedding anniversary.
I have a look on my face most days like this there is a constant fog and the smallest of things upset me.I have started having more migraines which is just the pits!
We have started to be more creative as well. Here is Uncle Sergio's Birthday present made by the children based on the circle and smiley face they made on the deck at their holiday house!
Blocks and creating towers have consumed many an hour which is great fun for all of us!
Alice is as Cheeky as ever and has truly made my days brighter. She certainly keeps us grounded.
The girls have found Aiden's cars and had a great time with lots of his toys from when he was little.
We have made Jars of jam and onion Marmalade! Yummo!Then the last 2 weeks have been consumed with CNY
The beginning of the celebrations and two weeks later! 12 hours of dance class 150km travelled 16 hours sewing, 25 carrots 2kgs of Oranges,6 packets of crackers 6 kgs of apples consumed and 95,000 grey hairs induced................
And it was well worth the effort!
See the slippers I made them for each child to dance in! Alice got the first pair and has worn them and worn them!
Here is Alice on Aiden's shoulders watching the performance.
Emily is turning into a wee performer!
The day ended with a big bang!Now we are caught up hopefully I am in a better space to post more regularly!
Hugs Ruth
